Magnet Chucks and Chuck Accessories From Eclipse Magnetics


Permanent magnet chucks, electro permanent magnet chucks and chuck accesories: safe and efficient holding of workpieces for grinding, milling and cutting.

Eclipse Magnetics produced the first ever switchable permanent-magnet chuck in 1934. Today our chucks are renowned worlwide for their quality.

Permanent magnets mean that no power is required to hold the load so permanent magnet chucks have no day-to-day running costs. Electro permanent chucks only require power for switching so running costs arevery low.

Electro-permanent magnet chucks provide more clamping power for larger workpieces. Permanent magnets mean that our chucks are – the workpiece remains held even if the power fails.


Magnet,Chucks,Chuck,Accessories,Eclipse,MagneticsPremier Magnetic Chucks

Magnetic chucks are used to hold workpieces for grinding, cutting, milling and lapping.

Eclipse Magnetics produced the first ever magnetic chuck in 1934 and we've made the world's finest chucks ever since.

The top plate is all metal to ensure accuracy and maxiumum coolant resistance, and extra thick to maintain accuracy and give the chuck many years of life, even after frequent regrinding.

Additional top plates are available. These can be mounted on top of the chucks and machined to fit a particular workpiece.

Side and end stops are chrome plated for maxium datum accuracy.

Chucks can be partially magnetised to allow ease of part positioning when setting up.

Handles are ergonomically designed for easy switching and are removable.

Our premier chucks have a 3 year guarantee against faulty workmanship and materials and a lifetime magnetism guarantee.

  • Premier Circular Chuck
    Circular chucks are designed for holding workpieces on lathes and internal, cylindrical or rotary grinding machines. They're ideal for holding thin ring-shaped components that can be subject to radial distortion.
  • Premier Radial Pole Chuck
    Radial chucks concentrate the entire magnetism of the chuck into the workpiece, providing a more powerful hold. Dynamically balanced for use at high rpm. A through bore (except NR100C) allows ease of location when fixturing and through flushing of coolant during machining.
  • Premier Rectangular Chuck
    Standard shape of magnetic chuck for most grinding, cutting, milling and lapping purposes.

Magnet,Chucks,Chuck,Accessories,Eclipse,MagneticsChuck Blocks

Chuck blocks extend the chuck's magnetic reach to areas of the workpiece not directly in contact with the chuck top plate to ensuring the workpiece is securely held.

These chuck blocks are for use on magnetic chucks with parallel poles. They may be used horizontally or vertically and can be machined to fit irregular shaped workpieces.

Rectangular blocks are sold in match and numbered pairs.

'v' shaped blocks are for holding cylindrical workpieces, the smaller for workpieces up to 20mm in diameter, the larger for workpieces up to 65mm in diameter.

It is sometimes advantageous to use 2 'v' blocks and matched numbered pairs are available.

  • Rectangular Blocks
    Blocks for extending the magnetic reach of chucks with parallel poles to hold 'awkward' shaped workpieces. Can be used vertically or horizontally and machined to fit.
  • V Blocks
    'V' shaped blocks for enabling chucks with parallel poles to hold cylindrical workpieces.

Magnet,Chucks,Chuck,Accessories,Eclipse,MagneticsMagnetic Vice

Accurate vice for grinding.

Holds the workpiece magnetically so does not have the distorting effects of a screw fixing. Can be used on its base, side or end and can be moved while holding the workpiece so the workpiece can be worked on 'square' in 3 dimensions.

Accuracy of faces: parallelism - 0.005mm; squareness: 0.01mm per 100mm.

Magnet,Chucks,Chuck,Accessories,Eclipse,MagneticsMagnetic V Block

Holds cylindrical and complex workpieces for marking, spark erosion, grinding and measurement.

The 'v' and the base are both magnetic. Both are energised / de-energised at the same time by the toggle switch. The base holds the unit, and therefore the workpiece, securely to any flat ferrous surface.

Smaller unit for workpieces with a diameter of up to 20mm

Larger unit for workpieces with a diameter of up to 65mm

It's sometimes advantageous to use two blocks. Matched numbered pairs are available.
